You’re supposed to clean your ears by using a little shampoo every time you shower.

I went to an ear doctor because my ears felt clogged. Turns out they were fine. They said it’s good I don’t qtip. O for sure do, and told them that. They said, well, you’re doing a good job, but don’t do that. It’s risky.

Basically, you don’t want to cram the ear wax deeper. But if you use the qtip like a shovel, and scrape the wax outwards, it’s fine.
